More rumblings about the Oregon State football coaching staff this morning. These from Pete Roussel, who runs coachingsearch.com. Here is what he reports:

Oregon State: Per source, John Garrett (2013 Tampa Bay receivers coach) will be the new offensive coordinator / quarterbacks at Oregon State. Garrett who was with the Cowboys from 2007-2012 as tight ends coach / passing game coordinator, is the brother of Cowboys head coach Jason Garrett.

Also from Roussel:

Oklahoma State: CoachingSearch.com has learned that Oregon State offensive line coach Mike Cavanaugh is indeed a strong candidate to land the offensive line job at Oklahoma State. A year ago, Lane Kiffin tried to lure Cavanaugh to USC, but the veteran offensive line coach decided to remain at Oregon State. Cavanaugh has spent the last nine seasons at Oregon State.

No official word yet from Oregon State on either possibility, but Connor Letourneau is pursuing on both angles.

These come on the heels of offensive coordinator Danny Langsdorf leaving to take a job with the New York Giants and graduate assistant/tight ends coach Kyle DeVan leaving to take a graduate assistant position at USC.

Oregon State, an athletic department spokesman said today, can’t officially announce any hirings until several administrative steps are taken, including a background check.
